What if he means it's still listed under Processes in Task Manager but it's not actually running/available to use? I have that happen occasionally, if I close Keyclone it'll play it's little sound effect and my mouse will hang while it closes for 1-2sec normally, but sometimes it hangs for MUCH longer, 5+ sec, and in those cases only the Keyclone.exe process is still in taskmanager, but otherwise it's not running. However, I'm still using a 2monthold version of keyclone(1.7f or so? and yeah yeah I know rob ;) it ain't broke so I ain't fixin it yet and the new features aren't ones I need yet lol), and it's only a minor issue post-play-time, I just end process and it's all better.

Just throwing out another perspective is all ;p

Edit: Also, regarding the X to taskbar thing...that's what the little _ button is for, quit giving it's job away ;) _ minimize, Square to maximize, X to close, simple as that.(And that's how it DOES work in my version, and I'm not complaining either way :p)
